TEST INSTRUCTIONS Socket <br /> POPPET&FLOAT MOVEMENT adaptor <br /> FOR TESTABLE MODELS ONLY <br /> TOOLS NEEDED FOR TESTING: <br /> 1. 1/4"square drive extension or 3/8"square drive ex- <br /> tension with 3/8"to 1/4"socket adapter. o <br /> 2. Torque wrench/ 1/4"or 3/8"square drive ratchet <br /> wrench. <br /> 3. Pipe dope. <br /> 4. Flashlight(optional). <br /> Open Poppet Closed Poppet <br /> TEST STEP 1: <br /> Remove spill container cover and fill cap from fill adapt- <br /> er and look down into the tube and make sure no debris Pull on extension and <br /> or foreign objects are present. If debris or foreign ob- socket adaptor <br /> jects are present take appropriate steps before proceed- <br /> ing. Look down into the tube and ensure poppet is1 <br /> completely protected by the deflection shield. See Test _ ——_ ' ' _ <br /> Figure 1. If poppet is exposed and tank is not full the <br /> overfill valve should be replaced. A flashlight may help i== <br /> when inspecting the tube. <br /> TEST STEP 2: _ <br /> Unthread the socket adaptor assembly from the inlet <br /> tube using a 1/4"square drive extension and wrench. <br /> The extension will attach to the socket adaptor. Secure <br /> all tools to ensure they don't fall into the tank or valve. _ <br /> With the extension still attached pull on the socket — —-- --_ <br /> adaptor and cable assembly and ensure float and pop- —_ <br /> et move/function properly. It should only require 3" <br /> to 4"of movement and less than 5 lbs of force in order �— <br /> to actuate the float and poppet. When looking down <br /> into the upper tube ensure poppet is visible and moves <br /> into the flow path (see Test Figure 1 &2)when socket Open <br /> adaptor is pulled and resets properly when socket adap- Poppet ` Closed <br /> for is released. If poppet does not actuate freely take 1a \ Poppet Float moves <br /> appropriate steps to correct. `, u <br /> TEST STEP 3: <br /> Apply pipe dope to the socket adaptor threads. Pipe <br /> dope should be a non-hardening gasoline resistant pipe <br /> thread seal compound. Make sure poppet and float <br /> have reset properly and are not visible then install sock- <br /> et adaptor and torque to 3.5 ft-lbs(42 in-lbs) minimum <br /> to 5.0 ft-lbs (60 in-lbs) maximum. After installing socket <br /> adaptor,to ensure vapor tightness,OPW recommends <br /> conducting pressure testing per CARB TP201.1 D. Some Test Figure 2 <br /> areas may require pressure testing of overfill valve per <br /> CARB TP201.1 D to ensure valve is vapor tight. If the <br /> drop tube fails pressure testing it may be necessary to <br /> check the seal at the poppet adaptor threads. Reinstall <br /> fill cap and spill container cover after testing. <br /> 17 <br />
